This is KATHYNE L. JACKSON's memoir of her personal journey to lose weight - 63 pounds - and the struggles she endured along the way. She was like everyone else, on the yo-yo trail to unhealthiness. She would play at losing 10 pounds and then gain 15 back, complaining all the way. She would get discouraged and eat more ice cream and chocolate and then hate herself for being weak. She would walk for three days and then would give up because on day four it rained. She would purchase a stationary bike and then use it as a clothes rack. And she continued to watch her weight climb to over 200 pounds. But still she did nothing. Then one day her doctor told her she had to get healthy, that if she did not start taking care of her weight, if she did not become serious about her cholesterol levels, she could develop diabetes. This knowledge scared her to finally make the conscious decision to get healthy. She did not make her goal weight, but she came close. She did lose 50 pounds. It was the longest 13 months of her life.

Writing this book has been a very essential part of my recovery. Except for my son, doctor, and finally, my Mom, there was no one I had chosen to confide in. Putting my own experiences down on paper gave me a chance to not only relive the experience and face the uncertainties, but to understand my motivation for doing it. Writing this book was an emotional lifeline for me and its been a wonderful outlet. Also, where else could I have expressed the joy of going from a size 22 to 16 in two months? Since no one knew I had the surgery, this book was the one place whereI could shout. This book was also written with others in mind. There may be those who felt as I did. Theyve secretly dreamed of undergoing the procedure because they were just as unhappy with certain aspects of their bodies as I was. Theyve squirreled away some money in the hopes that one day they might also take the next step. There are also those who have taken that step. I hope my words help someone else whos alone with their thoughts and pain as Ive been, give them a much needed mental hug, and let them know that someone else had undergone what they are considering or are now enduring. At those times, when I was most vulnerable, I kept telling myself that there would be people reading my words and saying to themselves, "This is normal. Kathyne went through this too, so I wont worry." Am I am glad I did it? Would I do it again?

The Beauty of Wings is a magical true story of inner transformation. It unravels the details of author Alexandra Mikas healing journey, from an excruciatingly painful childhood of bullying, exclusion, and asthma to her mid-twenties filled with anorexia, pneumonia, panic, and suffocation to near death. Through dedication and determination Alexandra propels herself out of dark waters and comes home to her natural state of bliss, radiant health, and love. Journey with Alexandra on a pilgrimage of self-awakening through Reiki (energy healing), a profound connection with an extraordinary horse, connecting deeply with the natural world, yoga, and learning to love herself unconditionally. Through the metaphor of lungs as butterfly wings, readers journey from the dark isolation of the cocoon into the freedom and majestic nature of the butterfly. The Beauty of Wings reveals the unlimited potential of the human spirit and the capacity within the heart for healing, transformation, and unconditional love. The Beauty of Wings is the story of an incredible journey of inner awakening, a story concerned with the task of learning to love oneself. This remarkable young woman has achieved what we would call speaking oneself into being through aligning her inner and outer speech with positive thinking and rising above any and all of lifes obstacles through determination. Her true story demonstrates the power of consistent positive thoughts to heal the body, heal the mind, and to positively change ones life. Pia Smith Orleane & Cullen Baird Smith, authors of Conversations With Laarkmaa, Remembering Who We Are and The Return of the Feminine. With great courage and honesty, Alexandra shares from the heart her story of struggle and pain, to surrender, healing and empowerment. From suffering to triumph, she speaks her truth and grows her wings to fly to new heights spreading the message of hope and beauty, as do the butterflies that have always been with her.
